    2013 NFL Season

    Oddly enough, of the 15 QBs to throw for over 500 yards in a game, their record in those games is only 8-7.

    Played online for a few hours today during the free XBOX Live weekend. May have to go ahead and re-subscribe, it was a hell of a lot of fun. Got in several races, a bunch of missions, and then spent some time just randomly chasing people down on the map and killing them. Didn't have any...

    Can't wait for Mizzou @ Georgia next week. I'm sure we'll probably lose, I'd like our chances a lot better if we were at home. Last years game was damn close @ Mizzou, we had a lead on Georgia until the 4th quarter, where we let it slip away. I think Mizzou is a much better team this year...

    Leave her. She was trying to bait you, you took the bait, fight ensued. That is not a healthy relationship. Get out ASAP.

    Christ, has the Galaxy Note always been $150 more than the regular Galaxy phone? I was thinking about a Note 3, but on Sprint the Note 3 is $350 with a contract renewal, whereas the Galaxy S4 is $200. I didn't realize there was that drastic of a price difference. Guess I'll definitely wait to...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    It's definitely closer than it was a few months ago. Hell, look at the poll on this thread that is mostly based on the initial launch info. 10-1 in favor of PS4. That new poll is closer to 2-1 in favor of PS4. Still a significant lead, but not the landslide that it was a few months back.

    Gotta love games that rely on completely invisible doors/walls for progression with no hint whatsoever as to where they are at, or that you should even be looking for one. Damn you Goonies!

    I rented Faxanadu multiple times as a kid, and I didn't have a clue what I was supposed to be doing, since I didn't have an instruction manual or anything. Was still fun to just wander around, but I never made much progress in the game. Kinda like Goonies II.

    You're not really interpreting that poll correctly. Yes, out of the people that responded to that poll, PS4 purchase % was only about 10% higher than XB1 purchase %, but the way that poll is arranged, that equates to 75% more people choosing PS4 over Xbox1. 26% chose PS4, 15% chose XB1, and...

    Auto-aim makes the game a joke. They need to remove that. Every fight ends up just "left trigger-right trigger-left trigger-right trigger" & repeat until you win.

    Yeah, I don't think they ever fixed the fact that you can just build nothing but residential and be fine. The base mechanics are completely broken. Every fix and patch that I've seen hasn't reported anything to fix that.

    Man, that's lame. How does anyone even compete with whoever the host is? I used to play a lot of Quake and Unreal Tournament WAY back in the day, and the host computer with their zero ping always had an enormous advantage.

    I'm not much of an online gamer outside of MMOs, but what is the largest PC game as far as online users in 1 game/match for games that are locally hosted on someone's computer, and not dedicated servers? Has 64 been done regularly and reliably in other games?

    well, as of next week you can get 3x AMD 290Xs for ~$2100, for the same(if not better) performance as $3000 worth of Titans. Shit moves quickly, and drops in price quickly. That performance mark has already dropped in price by 1/3 in about 6 months.

    Yeah that was the only disappointment about PS3. PS2 had that nice hint book included in it, but by the time PS3 rolled around, separate hint books were a huge business, and that one was like $15 extra. Shit takes a toll on your allowance budget when you're like 13 years old

    They're all like that anymore. Look at the GTA collectors thingy. $150 for a hat, tshirt, and dufflebag. That's like $20 worth of items for a $90 markup. Long gone are the days of Collectors Editions that are like $10-$20 more and include maps, soundtrack CDs, books, etc. Useless crap...

    Square made a lot of good non-RPG games back on PS1. Brave Fencer, Bushido Blade, Tobal, Front Mission, Einhander, Ehrgeiz. They haven't made near the variety of games since PS2 on. By that point the Final Fantasy franchise was so huge that by that point every release was either a FF game...

    A lot of those early PS1 RPGs were quite good. It just seems like most people didn't pay any attention to RPGs in that era until Final Fantasy 7 came out, but that was like 2 years after the original Playstation launch, but that did bring a TON of casual fans into the RPG fold. Beyond the...
